Step up to Longitude+ and you get an 8.4-inch Uconnenct media system that brings satellite-navigation and voice recognition. Limited is stacked with equipment, including a powered tailgate, 18-inch alloy wheels, Nappa leather upholstery, eight-way power driver’s seat, rear parking camera, auto headlights and wipers, keyless entry and start and a wireless phone charging pad.

A more off-road-focused model will be launched later in 2014, with height-adjustable suspension, locking differential and more protective cladding. A 3.2-litre V6 petrol engine will also be offered.

The entry-level price buys you a front-wheel-drive Longitude with the lower powered engine and a six-speed manual gearbox. The top-of-the-range 2.0 Limited 170 4x4 with a new nine-speed automatic gearbox will cost £35,695.
